Touting the Boy Scouts' "landmark" and "historic" decision to allow openly-gay members, CBS, ABC, and NBC gave supporters of the decision three times as many quotes as their opponents got on Friday morning's news stories.
The networks gave 10 soundbites to supporters of the new Scouts policy and only three to its opponents. Supporters included President Obama, gay scout Pascal Tessier, and former den leader Jennifer Tyrell.
Calling it a "major milestone," NBC's Craig Melvin didn't even acknowledge the opposition to the policy at first, pointing only to its supporters and those who believe it didn't go far enough:
"Just like you said, you know, some are pointing to lifting of the ban as another example of shifting opinions, rapidly changing opinions on homosexuality in this country. Others say the Scouts did not go far enough."
Melvin soon admitted that "Not all reaction has been positive."
ABC harshly labeled opponent John Stemberger an "anti-gay activist" but failed to use the "activist" label for "den mother" Jennifer Tyrell, who has openly worked with GLAAD to end the ban on gay scouts.
All three networks quoted Tyrrell and Tessier, as well as either Boy Scouts of America official Wayne Perry or Wayne Brock as supporting the law, and Stemberger opposing it. However, CBS also played a clip from Scott Pelley's February 3 interview with President Obama, where Obama said Scouting should be open to gays and lesbians.
"My attitude is – is that gays and lesbians should have access and opportunity the same way everybody else does," Obama told Pelley.
Below is a transcript of all three news segments, which aired on May 24:
[7:17 a.m. EDT]
JOSH ELLIOT: All right, we're going to turn now to the historic decision by the Boy Scouts of America. For the first time in its long history, the organization will now admit openly gay scouts. The controversial change takes effect next year and means that some boys who had been banned will now be welcome if not welcomed. ABC's David Kerley has the story.
(Video Clip)
(Music Playing)
DAVID KERLEY: (voice over) After 103 years –
(Cheering and Applause)
KERLEY: – this morning the Boy Scouts of America is lifting its ban on gay members. 61 percent of the Scouts' national leadership said it is time for change.
WAYNE BROCK, chief scout executive, Boy Scouts of America: No matter how you feel about this issue, kids are better off in scouting.
KERLEY: Good news for Pascal Tessier, who's been a scout for nine years and is openly gay, would have been banned from the highest honor, Eagle Scout.
TESSIER: I guess I am slightly surprised, but I'm also very proud of the fact that the leaders finally did change their minds.
KERLEY: The program is expected to lose sponsorships and as many as one in ten scouts.
JOHN STEMBERGER, anti-gay activist: I'm pulling my sons from the program very sadly, and this will probably be the last time I'll wear this uniform in public.
KERLEY: Even for the lesbian mother who pushed for this change, this is only partial victory.
JENNIFER TYRRELL, den mother: This is what we've been working for. It's a small step in the right direction, but it's huge in another way.
KERLEY: She will not be able to serve because the scouts did not lift the ban on gay adults being leaders.
(End Video Clip)
7:00 a.m. EDT Tease
MATT LAUER: Landmark decision. After years of debate, the Boy Scouts vote to allow openly gay members, but keep the ban on gay scout leaders. So will the controversial decision split that organization in half?
LAUER: A lot of reaction this morning to the Boy Scouts' historic decision to allow openly gay scouts but not to allow openly gay scout leaders. A decision some people think could split that organization in half. NBC's Craig Melvin is at the Scouts' headquarters in Grapevine, Texas. Craig, good morning to you.
CRAIG MELVIN: Matt, good morning to you. Members of Boy Scouts of America's national council cast that historic vote here just outside Dallas yesterday. Just like you said, you know, some are pointing to lifting of the ban as another example of shifting opinions, rapidly changing opinions on homosexuality in this country. Others say the Scouts did not go far enough. A major milestone as one of America's best known youth groups scraps its 22-year ban on admitting gay boy scouts.
[ON-SCREEN HEADLINE: Historic Vote; Boy Scouts to Allow Gay Youth]
PASCAL TESSIER [OPENLY GAY BOY SCOUT]: Now I have an opportunity to actually finish everything that I started so many years ago.
MELVIN: While more than 60% voted to lift the ban, openly gay adults are still barred from serving as leaders. Jennifer Tyrell's son was a scout. She says she was ousted as a den leader because she's gay.
JENNIFER TYRELL: I'm so excited because even though it doesn't affect me, it's what we've been working for.
MELVIN: Not all reaction has been positive.
JOHN STEMBERGER [FOUNDER, ONMYHONOR.NET]: When the Boy Scouts of America are going to put the interest of activists over and above the safety and security of our young boys, that's a program and a leadership that we can no longer trust.
MELVIN: Earlier this year, the Boy Scouts considered letting local troops decide whether to accept gay scouts, sparking a heated debate. Church groups, which sponsor 70% of all scouting units, weighed in, many wanting to keep the ban in place. Scout leaders decided to put the question to a national vote.
WAYNE PERRY [BOY SCOUTS OF AMERICA PRESIDENT]: It's a very difficult decision for a lot of people, but we're moving forward together.
MELVIN: Now again, the decision has not ended the debate. Some conservative groups, including churches, are already threatening to pull their support for packs and troops. The new rules, Savannah, take effect January 1st of next year.
SAVANNAH GUTHRIE: Alright, Craig Melvin, thank you very much.
07:16 am EDT
GAYLE KING: After months of debate, the Boy Scouts of America will allow openly-gay Boy Scouts to join. More than 60 percent of the group's national councils voted to approve the change. It begins next year. Manuel Bojorquez shows us the emotional reaction to this historic decision.
[CBS News Graphic: "Landmark Decision: Boy Scouts To Allow Gay Members, Not Gay Leaders"]
MANUEL BOJORQUEZ (voice-over): The landmark decision at the nation's leading youth organization means gay scouts, like 16-year-old Pascal Tessier can live openly.
PASCAL TESSIER, SCOUT: I'm still going to be able to call myself a Boy Scout. I'm going to be able to get my Eagle. I'm going to be able to go home and tell everyone at home that I can go on camping trips with them.
BOJORQUEZ: Fourteen hundred Boy Scout leaders gathered in Texas for a secret ballot. Sixty-one percent of them voted to end the controversial ban.
WAYNE PERRY, president, Boy Scouts of America: It's a very difficult decision for a lot of people, but we're moving forward together.
BOJORQUEZ: The policy change comes as public opinion on the issue appeared to be shifting. Even President Obama weighed in on the high-profile battle in an interview with Scott Pelley earlier this year.
SCOTT PELLEY (from February 3, 2013 interview): Should Scouting be open to gays?
PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA: Yes.
PELLEY: Why so?
OBAMA: My attitude is – is that gays and lesbians should have access and opportunity the same way everybody else does.
BOJORQUEZ: Conservative critics slammed the Scouts' decision, saying homosexuality is not compatible with the organization's values. Some predicted a mass exodus.
JOHN STEMBERGER, SCOUT LEADER: This will be the last time I'm wearing this uniform publicly. The way I view it, is that I'm not leaving Scouting. Scouting has left us.
BOJORQUEZ: Meantime, gay rights groups say they still have work to do, because the ban on adult gay leaders is still in place.
TESSIER: There's so much more to do. I'm not stopping. That's for sure.
BOJORQUEZ: For 'CBS This Morning', Manuel Bojorquez, Grapevine, Texas.

Re: Wrap your minds around this !!
PLEASE READ THE WHOLE POST..I mean every word..
1. Do you accept the possibility of "Time Traveling" ?
( for the first time in History we can accept the possibility )
2. Do you think that in the future we could refine this time travel ?
( if its possible now..then in the future couldnt it be slightly improved with time and experimentations ?)
FUTURE is a broad statement..how far into the future can we go ? lets face it..a very large comet or asteroid could impact the earth leaving only micro-organisms alive.
It Could happen a very short time from now .. that in itself could impact what we know from historical documents and religion as we know it..after all..IF we are completely obliterated by a very large rock hittin our Earth.. ( which is at this point just as likely as time travel) then things are not what they seem ( are you with me here ? )
But lets say that didnt happen ..
3.Could future Time Travelers exist in our own Time/Space ?
( could those same travelers exist in our past/present ? )
4. would it be concievable that Our Future is visiting our past.
( that may explain such "different" objects in the sky from time to time..we call them from other worlds..but Im suggesting mebee the come from the future of US.
5.could we be the Aliens were so searching for ?

text: What I'm attempting to do is create a dynamic table which has 7 or 6 columns. The rows are added when a new member is accepted into the group (already completed). The problem that I'm running into is that I need the 7th column to always be on the right, and the 6th column to sometimes be hidden (depending on group settings). I am still partially new to HTML and CSS, so I did a little research and tried 'visibility:collapse'. The only problem is that there is then a black space between columns 5 and 7. Any thoughts?HTML CSS

Knife Rack
Taylor's Eye Witness, UK
2006 -
To accompany the IF4000 range of knives, a knife rack seemed a relevant product. But it needed a 'useful but odd' character which was very much the interpretation of the company itself.
The Knife Rack presents itself as a simple strip of wood mounted on a wall. When a knife is attached to it, the usfulness becomes visible. The product uses the strength of layered Bamboo in combination with five submerged magnets.

Wine Opener and Peg
Muji, Japan
2008 -
The Muji Wine Opener and Peg typifies Industrial Facility's approach to standard, everyday products with a concern for matching basic needs with a comparitive degree of quality, design and price. The design used the concept of appropriation – simple acknowledgement of what is 'close' to the object, and appropriate in its dimension. The handle appropriates the diameter of the wine cork itself, and in so doing, becomes a comfortable place to store the foil cutter. This feature is not celebrated, merely hidden and suppressed, so as to not get in the way of its main job of removing corks.
The Wine Peg – produced a year later – adopts the same dimensions as the lower third of its brother the Wine Opener. The lever which is presented as a flat featureless bar that provides a satisfying surface for pressing.

Taylor's Eye Witness
2007 - 2009
In discussions with Alastair Fisher, director of Taylor's Eye Witness, the subject of low-cost cutlery sold in supermarkets was approached, which could best be described as poorly made pseudo-craft that uses mass-produced methods of production. The cheaper the cutlery, the more grandiose it tries to present itself. The conversation was extended with Muji Europe, who agreed to partner in the production of a low-cost everyday set of cutlery, similar in principle to the conditions of Mono Cutlery designed by Peter Raacke in Post War Germany, where resources were limited.
To do this, Industrial Facility set about looking into a very different direction – not to mimic quality, but to elevate the vernacular of disposable plastic cutlery.
The first experiment was to literally make a transfer of material in our workshop. The result of turning plastic cutlery into metal showed just how beautiful these unseen designs were. It was then a process of refining them, and editing the place setting down to four pieces – including a spork (a combination of a spoon and fork).

Jersey Dishes
Jersey Pottery, Jersey
2007 — 2011
The thinking of this design went along the lines of a set of dishes that acted as a 'meal for two'. Starters, a main dish and dessert. The dishes nestled within the largest one, so making it very compact for storing. Each dish was made from hard paste porcelain and could withstand high and low temperatures. They could move directly from the freezer to the oven, and then to the dishwasher. In 2009, Jersey Pottery commissioned a graphical interpretation of their uses, with 'Sweet' and 'Savoury' versions being created.

IF4000 Knives
Taylor's Eye Witness, UK
2004 -
A lot of knives are shaped to fit the hand with what could be called pseudo-ergonomic aesthetics, the claim being that they position a form into a hand perfectly, yet this approach limits the many different ways we actually hold and manipulate a knife. With IF4000 the simple tapered oval was resurrected, which means that even with the eyes closed, you know which way the handle is facing. For the materials and processes, the blade uses a technique of precision-forging and grinding which allows a smoother transition between blade and handle. For the handle, an investigation was made to find a 'cool' material, rather than a 'warm' plastic. After much testing, a white polyester and melamine composite seemed to work. This was followed by a black version, with slight adjustments to the blade, in 2007.

PARIS (AP) — In a lucrative career that has seen him earn millions around the world, David Beckham has joined Paris Saint-Germain pledging to play for free and donate his salary to a children's charity.
The former England captain rejected other offers and signed a five-month contract for the ambitious French club on Thursday in a stunning move that came as the transfer window was starting to close.
No details were given on how much the 37-year-old star will be paid or which charity will get the money.
"It's something we (decided) together; it's one of the things we talked about from the start. But this all happened so quick," Beckham said. "I thought what a great idea it would be, that the salary would go to a children's charity in Paris."
Beckham's glamorous career has seen him win titles with Manchester United, Real Madrid and the Los Angeles Galaxy.
"Every club I have played for throughout the world, I have been successful with. I have been successful with Manchester United, and I have always said that I would never want to play for another English club," Beckham said. "It's the team that I support, that I always dreamt of playing for."
Beckham recently finished a six-year stint in the United States with the Galaxy in Major League Soccer. Whether he can still be a force in European soccer is uncertain, especially with so many talented players in a PSG team that has cost nearly €270 million ($366 million) to assemble since its Qatari owners, QSI, took over in June, 2011.
"I am very lucky. I am 37 years old and I got offered a lot of offers, more offers now than I have probably had in my career, at my age," Beckham said. "I am very honored about that. I chose Paris because I can see what the club are trying to do, the players the club are trying to bring in. It's an exciting city, always has been, always will be."
The immaculately dressed Beckham was a model of elegance and calm as camera crews and photographers jostled for position amid the frenzy. He joked that he feels much younger than his age.
"To be the elder statesman, I'm very proud of that," he said. "No matter what my age is, I still feel 21 years old - most days."
Although Beckham's deal runs out in June, he intends to keep playing, although whether that will be with PSG remains to be decided. He is, however, eager to have a long-term role at the club.
"We slightly brushed over it, a long-term partnership is what we have looked for," he said. "Short term is playing, but long term is something we are very proud to be part of this organization that will grow and become one of the biggest in Europe."
Beckham was close to joining PSG last year, discussing a potential move with a club desperately chasing a big name to match its sudden allure and seemingly endless funds from its Qatari backers.
But the move fell through and PSG moved on to other targets, landing striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic and AC Milan teammate Thiago Silva as well as Napoli winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and Brazilian prodigy Lucas.
"I felt last year that I still had something to achieve in Los Angeles. I won the championship in the last year of my contract," said Beckham, adding that the time was not right. "So we parked it and decided that right now is the right time because I was at the end of my contract last year. I accepted one more year in Los Angeles, I won another championship, another trophy in Los Angeles and I believe it was the right time to leave."
He said the move was finally sealed overnight. And shortly before noon on Thursday, he made the short flight from London to Paris.
"Right now, I have a few things to sort out with my children and the schooling and a few other things," he said. "I have been training at Arsenal. My fitness won't take long to get up to speed. I definitely won't be fit for next Friday. A few weeks and I'll be up to speed."
Meanwhile, Beckham has alrady agreed on a novel way of putting his big salary to good use.
"We decided on something that is quite unique - I won't receive any salary. We have decided that my salary will go towards a local children's charity in Paris. And that's one of things we are very excited and proud to be able to do," he said. "It's something I'm not sure has been done before, and it's something I'm very passionate about, children and the charity side of things, and so are the club. We came together and it's something special."
For the time being, Beckham will stay in a hotel, with his family staying in London.
"I think it'll be easier for me," he said. "Whatever's easiest for me and the family when they come to watch me."
As well as earning his place in the team, one of the other challenges facing free-kick specialist Beckham will be wrestling the ball off top scorer Ibrahimovic. He says he's already got vast experience of taking the ball off other specialists and having a go himself.
"If I get the chance, then I'm sure we will share that thing. Whoever fancies it," Beckham said. "I've done it in the past. I've been in teams with Roberto Carlos and Ronaldo and (Zinedine) Zidane — trying to take a free kick off Roberto Carlos is pretty difficult. I expect with Ibra, it will be exactly the same."

Computer Bridge: A Big Win for AI Planning
A computer program that uses AI planning techniques is now the world champion computer program in the game of Contract Bridge. As reported in The New York Times and The Washington Post, this program -- a new version of Great Game Products' BRIDGE BARON program -- won the Baron Barclay World Bridge Computer Challenge, an international competition hosted in July 1997 by the American Contract Bridge League. It is well known that the game tree search techniques used in computer programs for games such as Chess and Checkers work differently from how humans think about such games. In contrast, our new version of the BRIDGE BARON emulates the way in which a human might plan declarer play in Bridge by using an adaptation of hierarchical task network planning. This article gives an overview of the planning techniques that we have incorporated into the BRIDGE BARON and discusses what the program's victory signifies for research on AI planning and game playing.

Barclays heralds new wave of wallet-waving
Contactless tech going in cards - data-gathering to follow
Barclays Bank is to embed contactless technology into every debit card issued from this day forward, allowing punters to pay for coffee with a wave of the wallet - providing they can find somewhere that accepts the new technology.
Barclays has had a contactless card for a while now; the OnePulse, which also has an Oyster card embedded for use on the London underground. But that was only available to Londoners for obvious reasons. Now everyone with a debit card is going to be wirelessly enabled, next time their card is replaced, which the companies involved hope will kickstart the wireless-payments industry.
The system is based on Visa's payWave system, which is compatible with Mastercard's PayPass, and processes transactions of up to a tenner by waving the card near the reader. Every now and then, at random or in response to unusual behaviour, the user will have to put the card in a normal reader and enter their PIN in the existing manner.
The security mechanisms employed are challenge/response, and subject to the usual concerns about interception and transaction replication. The communication protocol used by both Visa and Mastercard conforms to the EMV specification, though the kernel and encryption systems are kept secret - a strategy which rarely works out for the best, though given the £10 transaction cap and the ability to fall back on the PIN the security issues would seem minimal.
However, while most debit-card transactions are performed online, so the customer's bank balance is checked before the transaction is authorised, PayWave transactions always take place offline, which will no doubt delight students everywhere - especially as the pubs start accepting them.
More concerning is the ability of the banks to collect usage information about all those cash transactions; they'll know where you drink coffee, what paper you read and how much you spend on cigarettes. It will make for almost as much data as the supermarkets are already collecting through your loyalty card.
Merchants apparently gain from faster transaction times, and thus shorter queues, though given that debit cards normally charge a minimum fee for each transaction they would seem ill-suited to a large number of small transactions. We put that point to Barclays, who pointed us to Barclaycard as they are handling negotiations with merchants, and we are still awaiting comment on the matter from them. ®

LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwired - Apr 24, 2014) - THE CABLE SHOW -- ADB will be showcasing its newest solutions for MSOs for hotels, hospitals, and small businesses at booth ES-67 at The Cable Show, including the implementation of its new version of its Commercial Video Solution -- CVS 2.0 for the Healthcare Industry.
ADB's Commercial Video Solution (CVS) 2.0 allows operators to easily provide broadcast, IP, and VOD services to businesses wanting to generate revenue from their video services using their existing residential network. Features of the product include the ability for operators to manage their entire footprint of CPE devices from a central location, including provisioning, real-time monitoring, and reporting. New features include a CVS Cloud Hosting service, reducing the operator's OPEX costs.
With the introduction of the cloud hosting service, hospitals and hotels no longer need to have head-end equipment in each premise nor a technician for installation, problem solving, and other maintenance services for onsite visits to hotel and hospital rooms or each apartment. ADB's CVS technology provides an ideal solution to these restraints and costs. The cloud hosted offering allows smaller operators to benefit from the same operating cost savings that larger operators enjoy.
An end-to-end solution, CVS provides the flexibility demanded in the hospitality and healthcare markets. For example, a hotelier can offer guests a full HD channel lineup, a choice of interactive guides with VOD/PPV, and concierge services. In a healthcare facility, CVS communicates with the bedside monitoring devices for seamless integration with the patient monitoring system at the nurse's station.
ADB has designed CVS to keep operating and maintenance costs to a minimum with an easy-to-use web-based dashboard that allows reception clerks and the operator's technicians to view real-time diagnostics to rectify problems -- such as someone pulling out a cable -- without the expense of dispatching a service truck to the location.
This dashboard also makes it easy for staff in a hotel or hospital for example to manage TV settings, such as parental controls for groups of rooms with children. The CVS product also allows the operator's customers to use their own branding and choose their own custom programming and channel numbering lineup as well as menus, screen colors, fonts, and logos.
As well as demonstrating the latest software features in CVS, at NCTA ADB will highlight its latest range of consumer devices supported by CVS.
"With many MSOs and their customers achieving a demonstrable return on investment from CVS, we are focusing on new management tools that help operators further reduce operating costs, a wider choice of consumer devices and operator customized solutions for different customer segments," said Chris Dinallo, SVP Global Business Development at ADB. "Already our work with Time Warner Cable and other leading cable providers has yielded their customers greater efficiencies, cost savings and an innovative product for revenue generation. We're looking forward to greater expansion in the U.S. market, bringing better TV services to hospitals, hotels and small businesses."

Channing Tatum is keen to expand his entertainment empire in New Orleans, Louisiana by snapping up a hotel.
The actor opened a restaurant/bar on the city's famous Bourbon Street last year (12) and now he is trying to persuade his Magic Mike director Steven Soderbergh to partner in a new venture now the filmmaker is nearing retirement.
Tatum tells WENN, "I want to open a hotel in New Orleans with Steven but he just won't. He's got time on his hands and he's not doing anything anymore so he needs to jump on it."
But his New Orleans business plans will take a back seat once Tatum becomes a father when his pregnant wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum gives birth.
He adds, "Being a dad will be the biggest role of my life. Hope I don't screw that one up! I'm really, really excited and I hope to slow down a little bit once the little person comes into the world."

When Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina was censured by various GOP county committees in his own state recently, Graham dismissively blamed it on "Ron Paul people." When Florida governor and U.S. Senate candidate Charlie Crist was defeated in a Republican straw poll by challenger Marco Rubio in December, Crist complained it was nothing more than "Ron Paul people"
At this year's 2010 Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C/, there were plenty of "Ron Paul people," enough to deliver the congressman a first-place victory in the annual CPAC straw poll, long considered a decent gauge of conservatives' mindset. But when Paul's victory was announced much of the CPAC crowd booed, showing disdain for the congressman not unlike that expressed by Graham and Crist. Those pesky "Ron Paul people" had struck again, it seemed, and many Republican establishment types quickly dismissed the poll. But one glaring question remains: Who is it that Paul's critics prefer to him? What kind of "people" are they?
What, for example, are Mitt Romney people, who placed second this year and won CPAC's straw poll the last three years? Romney was introduced at CPAC by newly elected senator Scott Brown, and the Massachusetts politicians stood side by side before a cheering conservative audience that seemed oblivious to the fact both men implemented government-mandated healthcare in their state, similar to the Democrats' current national plan. President Obama and his party have even often cited the Massachusetts plan, known as "Romneycare," as the model for "Obamacare." In his speech, Romney also had much praise for George W. Bush. The crowd went wild.
What are "Dick Cheney people," who received a standing ovation at CPAC? Said Cheney, "A welcome like that almost makes me want to run for office," which elicited chants of "run, Dick run!" from the audience. Cheney promised that Obama would be a "one-term president" and said that conservatives could look forward to victory in 2010. Considering his big government track record, Cheney giving conservatives' prospects is sort of like Tiger Woods giving marital advice. Yet loudly and with zero irony, CPAC cheered Cheney.
We could go down the list — what are Newt Gingrich, John Boehner, or Tim Pawlenty "people?" What solid, tangible conservative platform or agenda are any of these people suggesting, other than defeating Obama and the Democrats? Is a return to Bush Republicanism really a desirable goal, as Romney and Cheney's warm welcomes seemed to suggest? Rush Limbaugh claims Paul's straw poll victory means CPAC wasn't conservative this year, which raises the question, "well, who was 'conservative' this year, Rush?" Since CPAC's inception in 1973, what has actually been done to shrink the size of government? What in the last Republican administration, something Romney praises and Cheney represents, gives anyone who isn't completely brain dead hope for a better, more conservative future?
When you boil it all down and though they won't admit it, here's what those who complain about "Ron Paul people" really care about — GOP victory. They don't really care why, how, or to what ideological end — only that Democrats lose elections and Republicans win them. The tolerance of the big-government George W. Bush years proved as much, and the current nostalgia for Cheney only underscores this point. Those at CPAC who cheered Romney, Cheney, and the conventional rest have no intention of ever challenging the status quo precisely because they are the status quo.
Then there are the "Ron Paul people." Paul's CPAC speech was not simply partisan Democrat bashing, but a lesson on how any GOP worthy of challenging the status quo must finally deliver on the conservatism it has always promised. Paul said Republicans must finally show true fidelity to the Constitution. Considering the conservative movement's abysmal failure in stopping government growth, Paul asked the crowd to reexamine first principles, casting a critical eye upon the Right's enthusiasm for wars that don't make much sense and cost too much money, incurring massive debt. In short, Paul called for an end to big government — all of it. Asks Pat Buchanan, "Who in the Republican Party today is calling for a Barry Goldwater-like rollback of federal power and federal programs? Except Ron Paul." Answer: no one. Paul's CPAC speech proved as much.
Derided as "kids," or irrelevant "college students," the many young people who support Paul are the heart and soul of what has been dubbed the "Ron Paul Revolution," and they are a force to be reckoned with. Writes National Review Online's Robert Costa, "Paul supporters were the most visible and vocal throughout CPAC."
Expect Paul supporters to become even more visible and more vocal in the future, because it will be impossible to silence a genuine movement driven by actual conservative passion, and not just the two-party horse race the Republican establishment continues to mistake for principle. In their ignorance, conservatives who boo Paul, at CPAC or anywhere else, are essentially dismissing the only force in contemporary American politics serious about smaller government. And despite the constant media spin and gnashing of teeth, Ron Paul and his "people's" onward march does not represent some sort of confusion within the conservative movement-but the only conservative movement.

Pre-Ceremony drinks table. Important or no?
As guests arrive to your ceremony they are many times in what I call awkward mode….meaning they just don't quite know what to do with themselves yet. It's before they've met anyone or reconnected with people. I love to give them something to do. This is one of the reasons I like to do a program even when a program isn't totally necessary. I love anything that alleviates the awkward moments. A pre-ceremony drink table can do the same.
Although I've done a darling champagne bar before I actually don't recommend doing anything alcoholic before you've given your guests a nibble. I do though love a lemonade bar or even just spa water in a pretty glass dispenser. If you live in Los Angeles or another busy city I also highly recommend doing a 15 minute hold on the ceremony. It's all planned this way from the beginning so you don't have to worry if your shuttle bus is running late or the freeway or valet is backed up. Everyone can arrive and de-stress and be ready to fully enjoy your ceremony.
The pre-ceremony drinks table gives them something to do and a place to congregate without feeling like they need to go sit in a chair facing straight ahead at nothing. In fact, I don't even seat the guests till after the invitation time. I like to give people a chance to connect before sitting down. It warms people up and again, avoids the awkward moment of sitting and waiting for the ceremony to start. Some brides are wary to set their wishing tree or other fun guest "book" things out because people won't have the time to sign it before hand but if you do a 15 minute hold than many people will have time to sign it AND again, it gives them something to do. Can you tell I really hate awkward moments at weddings? I think you have to help your guests avoid those and really get them comfortable and in a place to truly open up and enjoy your day. You'd be surprised how many people get nervous when they go to events.
Also, the pre-ceremony drink /sign in table gives you one more place to carry through your palette and décor. I love to deck this table out. It's their first taste of your wedding style. Check out Tin Parade's latest designs for the line of Table Banners by Tin Parade. You could be one of the first to get your hands on the I DO table banner just in time for your spring or summer wedding drink or dessert table. (make sure you go to the updates tab to see the I DO design)

'onRenderHeaderCell'=>array($this, 'onRenderHeaderCell'),
This is truly a powerful and awesome extension! I can whip up spreadsheets for my customers in no time. But now I need to take it to the next level and add formatting to the cells. But I just can't figure out how to do this with the information you've provided. Would it be possible to give a more detailed explanation?
I found section 4.6.18 FORMATTING CELLS in the document PHPExcel Developer Documentation, but I don't understand how that applies when building a Yii application.
And I'm very familiar with passing $data to a callback, I do this all the time in my CGridViews. But how does that work with your onRenderDataCell() function?
Maybe you could provide the code for a simple example. Suppose I wanted to format all the cells in one row with a light grey background, and then format all the cells in a second row with red text in a bold font. How would you do this?
Thanks for your help. I truly appreciate your great extension as well as your time and effort supporting those of us who use it.

SAN FRANCISCO -- The Brian Wilson saga is likely nearing its final chapter.
During an event in New York on Saturday, Giants general manager Brian Sabean told the New York Post that he does not anticipate Brian Wilson returning to the Giants this season. The Giants non-tendered Wilson in November, making the three-time All-Star closer a free agent.
"I'm going to be brutally honest as I always am, I don't (think Wilson will return)," Sabean said. "In this case, where you are getting a second Tommy John ... it's the type of rehab where he's still not further up along to judge exactly where he may be able to come back in major league fashion, let alone as a closer."
Wilson, who ranks third in franchise history with 171 saves, made just two appearances last April before having reconstructive elbow surgery for the second time. He began his throwing program on Oct. 19, the day of Game 5 of the National League Championship Series, and maintained he'd be ready to return to his role as closer in 2013.
"I'm going to be me opening day," Wilson said at the time.
The Giants have taken a more cautious approach, and many within the organization don't believe Wilson will be ready at the beginning of the upcoming season. Sabean had hoped to sign Wilson to a one-year deal with a low base salary and incentives that could bring Wilson closer to the $6.8 million that he would have been guaranteed had the Giants tendered him a contract. But Wilson, a star on and off the field during his seven seasons with the Giants, wasn't enthralled by the offer and has tested the market. "It's one of those things where it's very difficult trying to change somebody's mind, being (Wilson's), in that the organization owes him, and we do owe him a debt of gratitude," Sabean told the Post, "(But) this is a tough business, and we have to be financially responsible."
Sabean said the Giants may still have the flexibility to bring Wilson back on an incentive-laden deal, but he believes Wilson would prefer to head elsewhere if such a deal is the best he can do. Manager Bruce Bochy said earlier he was prepared to head into the 2013 season with Sergio Romo as the closer and several other relievers providing occasional support.
"You look at the job they did last year, and they certainly have earned the right to go into the year being our guys," Bochy said of the bullpen group that helped clinch a second World Series in three seasons. ___

Phone It In: Vintage Telegraph Insulators as Decor
I recently worked with a client who told me he wanted to incorporate his collection of vintage telegraph insulators into a new project. I'll be honest, I had no idea what they were, but after a little research I completely understood his fascination with these colorful glass gems.
If you love seaglass or colored glass bottles, you'll love vintage telegraph insulators. Glass and ceramic insulators were originally manufactured in the 1800s to protect telegraph lines and secure them to poles, and then later used for telephone and power lines. The bulbous fixtures come in a variety of shapes and sizes, a wide spectrum of colors from deep amber to ocean blue, and a range of textures such as bubbly, frosted, clear and swirly.
Because of the large quantities of glass insulators used over they years, they're fairly easy to find at a low cost. They can be found at garage sales, garden stores, Etsy, and eBay for just a few dollars to upwards of $50 for rarer varieties. They can simply be displayed, mounted as hooks and knobs, converted into planters, salt & pepper shakers, and of course candle holders and light fixtures.
1. Antique Insulator Pendant Lights, $149.99 at RailroadWare
2. Rare Unique One Of A KInd Found Art Vintage Glass Insulator, $18 at Etsy
3. Steampunk Bedside Lamp, $59 at Etsy
4. InsulatorWare Cacti & Bonsai Planter, $27.99 at RailroadWare
5. Pen Holder & Paper Weight, $24 at Etsy

The Zak Zone
Monday morning, I awoke shivering and cocooned inside three blankets on my bed, which usually happens only as fall approaches, and fall means one thing: Football season has arrived.
In fact, Monday's cocoon incident was just a reminder for me after I spent the majority of my day Saturday at one football field or another.
The first game was an afternoon one featuring my cousin's home team, the Reynoldsville Falcons, and in the evening, I was on the sidelines taking pictures at the Junior and Senior games for the A.J. Parise Youth Football teams in Punxsutawney.
As a Pittsburgh sports fan, I know only three seasons: Football season, baseball season and hockey season, and with each new season comes a fresh start.
In football, on top of the youth teams I already mentioned, I follow the Chucks, the Nittany Lions and the Steelers most closely, and this time of year, all of those teams are still undefeated.
I can say the same thing about the Pirates at the beginning of the summer, but with the football teams comes a little bit more hope.
Punxsy is a football town. I grew up playing backyard football with my brother, who I used to call Superman for his ability to adjust to my poor throws and make amazing, diving catches.
We especially enjoyed playing football in the snow, because his catches seemed all the more spectacular as he gained speed sliding through the slush.
Saturday afternoons, our television was reserved for Nittany Lions games, and Sundays, you didn't dare try to change the channel during the Steelers game.
Before the days of DVR, we couldn't go back and watch what we missed at the touch of a button, so we clung to the edge of our seats with every play.
Fall is my favorite of the seasons for many reasons.
The leaves changing colors in western Pennsylvania is one of the most aesthetically pleasing things I've ever seen, and the weather cooling down is a welcome reprieve from the heat and humidity we face for what seems about six months too many.
But football is the main reason I look forward to this time of year, and this year, I have plenty to look forward to.
It's my first season as a sports reporter, and this year, I'll be on the sidelines, just like I was Saturday, snapping pictures and recording every play in my notebook. This is a sports geek's dream come true.
My excitement doesn't stop there, though.
The Steelers made very few moves in a shortened, hectic offseason, which is a promising sign that they liked the core they have — one that was solid enough to take them to the Super Bowl last year.
I will admit the most exciting prospect, though, is having the opportunity to watch my little cousin, Jake, suit up and play youth football.
I don't have any kids of my own yet, and so I thrive off seeing my cousins doing things they enjoy, and Jake sure seems to enjoy his football, and he's pretty good at it, too.
Andy, Jake's younger brother, played baseball this year and is also shaping up to be a great ball player.
He is already looking forward to his turn at football a few years down the road.
I lived in the heart of Pittsburgh for three years, and one thing I noticed this time of year was the lack of local excitement and coverage for high school sports.
One day, I hope to see Jake taking the field at the varsity level in high school, though I will admit it might pain me a bit to see him wearing DuBois colors.
But that's the beauty of football to me.
We cheer for our team and cheer against our rivals, but in the end, we all do it out of a love for the same game.
Can you tell I've been thinking a lot about the fellowship that goes with sports lately?
Turns out, it doesn't just apply to those playing the sport, but to those watching it, as well.
I've tailgated with Ohio State fans before a Penn State home game, yelled at and taunted them throughout the game and then shared burgers with them in the parking lot afterwards.
Our team gives us something to cheer about and gives us hope in something, but the sport itself brings the people together.
From mothers who sit in the stands gripping their rosaries and praying their sons don't get hurt, to the coaches who pour hours into preparing their teams for each contest, everyone comes to see the final product beneath the bright lights.
So, this fall, I hope to see you out there.
Whether its at the A.J. Parise game, the Chucks' games, or I happen to run into you at a Steelers' tailgate, we can all enjoy the game together... unless you're a Cowboys fan (Just kidding... kind of).
